Txakura Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Not entirely OT, does anyone know of a bus bar, or terminal strip that can be used for accessories? I'd like a 3-4 terminal bar that I could put under the hood or dash to keep things tidy for light wiring etc. It'd be nice to have one rated for high power so that I could run a direct line to the battery and then go from there to Hellas etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would most likely have a power distribution block that would clamp around your positive battery terminal, and would have multiple output ports on it. They are usually gold plated. You can probably get one on the cheap from eBay as well. I hope this helps. - Patrick Edited March 18, 2009 by 4WDFrenzy edited wording Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4WDFrenzy Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 It's cool and you're very welcome. I have a background in car stereo installation and when I read your post, that was the first thing that came to mind. Take care and may GOD Bless You.
